Solace from Sand

I am the stained glass

making light

my own.

I am born from silica,

tempered by the soda, potash,

lime and lead,

to blow strength and form

into the molten.

Tinted beauty,

yet tainted arrogance,

I am colored by cobalt and copper.

Tinged teal,

I beam blue,

an aura

astral azure.

Sanctifying sacred grounds,

I, through my prismatic brilliance

bring bliss and blessings

by benediction.
